Chapter 196, 3 Connections
Ziyi and Zian worked hard on the new problems, while Li Mosi started drawing diagrams.
The saintess would occasionally run over to look at the two disciples, and then sit down next to Li Mosi to watch him paint.
"Be quiet for a moment. Do you think you're a child?"
Li Mosi couldn't hold back any longer after she had just finished drawing the concept diagram and front view with a pen.
Hagi Saint didn't actually run more than three steps away from him, but all this commotion was quite a nuisance.
"Because I'm bored."
The saintess squatted beside him.
"I've been so busy until now, and suddenly everything's quiet!"
Li Mosi reached out and pulled her down to sit.
"You talk like you've done all the work! Sit down! Be quiet!"
He saw Haki Saint open his mouth, but was stunned by his shout.
She pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
Finally, it's quiet.
Halfway through the afternoon, Farol went back into the main courtyard.
He glanced around the yard.
He glanced at his tribesmen who were training, then strode toward Li Mosi and the others.
The three masters and disciples, having finished their tasks, naturally noticed him and also saw the small squad of goblin warriors supervising the work behind him.
Farol stopped a few steps in front of Li Moss and spoke.
"My lord, the road to Tufate Manor has been connected."
The goblin warriors in charge of overseeing the work also followed closely behind Ziyi.
"Chief, the roads are now connected!"
"It connected just in time!"
"I see."
Zi Yi nodded to the soldiers, and then nodded to Li Mosi.
Li Mosi closed the [Leshanshui] map, glanced at Zi Yi, and then turned to look at Farol: "Not bad, you did a great job."
He had just learned about the situation of his people from the map.
The road extending from the eastern end of the eastern main road of the Valos Knights' territory cuts through the woodland and connects directly with the western end of the western main road of the Tufate Knights' territory.
The people were still on their way back, dragging tree stumps, trunks, weeds, and other things with them.
It's about a five or six-minute walk to the crossroads of Valos Knights' territory.
Farol and the goblins must have run back to report first.
He also glanced at the old man and his group's situation.
With goblins possessing short-range night vision, they should have returned to the tribe by midnight yesterday.
Even if you've had a nap, it should be time by now.
Judging from the map, the old man's convoy is indeed arriving soon.
The caravan was larger than Li Moss had anticipated, seemingly bringing all the tribe's vehicles and livestock. Zwan was also in the procession.
The sheer number of vehicles and livestock exceeded the capacity of the people Li Moss had sent back to handle properly.
No wonder it was a step slower than expected.
"grown ups."
Farol asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Why don't you go and take a look? I'm afraid the people will think you're deceiving them, sir."
He spoke very bluntly.
These are characters that cannot be unlocked unless the player's affection level is high enough.
Upon hearing this, Hagi Saint's lips curled into a smile, and he looked at Li Mosi with some anticipation.
"Need not."
Li Mosi waved her hand.
"I said I would always be watching over you."
what?
Farol opened his mouth slightly, somewhat puzzled.
He instinctively wanted to offer some words of advice.
But this...
Farol looked at Li Moss's confident expression, as if he really saw it.
Is this new lord a magician?!
But those were high-ranking nobles he had only heard about from caravans when he was a child!
It is said that you have to travel at least ten days to the west to see it.
That was a distance he never dared to even imagine.
However, he had heard that magicians always liked unusual things...
He glanced at Ziyi, then at the bear ears on Zian's head.
hiss……
The saintess's smile was almost impossible to hide.
I don't know why.
She was happy only when others were amazed by the craftsman's skills.
"What are you standing there for?"
Looking at Farol, who seemed hesitant to speak, Li Mosi reached out and grabbed Hagi Saint's arm.
"Let's go check on the stonemasons. We'll need to arrange new work for them when the people return."
"Yes, yes, sir."
Farol nodded and turned to walk towards the gate of the courtyard.
"Sir is right, it's not time to finish work yet."
As soon as they stepped outside the courtyard wall, the group, who had spent most of the day in the courtyard, subconsciously looked at a large pile of things against the wall to the south.
Pop, pop, pop.
Hundreds of oak tree trunks with their branches cut off, more than a hundred tree stumps of varying freshness, and a large pile of fresh oak branches are all piled up here.
Although Li Mosi did not know the principle, the tree stumps left after the trees were cut down were beneficial to the growth of new trees.
To clear the road, they dug up all the tree stumps that had accumulated over the years, which immediately provided a large amount of firewood that could burn for a long time.
Pop, pop, pop.
Following the direction from which the sound came, Li Mosi turned her head to look at the stone wall on the north side.
He remembered that when he returned yesterday evening, the stone wall had just been partially demolished by the stonemasons and their team from the area where the gate was located.
They demolished an area that was several tens of meters long and reduced its height by about one meter.
Now, they've demolished that area and replaced it with knee-high walls.
A huge inverted trapezoidal gap appeared in what was originally a complete wall.
The sturdy wooden door was pushed directly to the ground.
Pop, pop, pop.
The young men led by the stonemason were casually picking up stone bricks and placing them on the ground.
The stonemasons and their eldest son used chisel-like tools to pry the stone bricks off the stone wall.
Although the stone wall below is much thicker, the stonemasons no longer need to fear falling off the wall, and the young people no longer need to fear breaking the stone bricks.
The efficiency was actually higher than yesterday.
Li Moss looked at Farol and found that his gaze was focused on the distance.
He wasn't looking at the craftsmen or the young people; instead, he was gazing at the northern forest.
"Farol".
Li Moss's call made Farol react immediately.
"Yes."
He turned to look at Li Mosi.
"I'm sorry, sir. I was lost in thought."
Li Moss didn't say anything about it.
He looked at the forest and asked, "Is this the first time you've seen what's behind the wall?"
"No, sir."
Farol shook his head.
"I'm lucky enough to get a glimpse of what's behind the wall every year when I send those mercenaries out."
"Most of our people can't see it; they can only hear about it from me and the soldiers. But we can never describe the wonder behind it in words."
Zi'an pursed her lips.
Zi Yi was a little curious.
"What were your thoughts when you saw it?"
Farol glanced at Zi Yi and pointed north.
"Sir, this river is absolutely beautiful. I never imagined there would be so much water right next to us until I first looked out."
"I often think, how wonderful it would be if we could get water from this river! Then we wouldn't have to wait so long to get any water from that ditch in the south."
"Sigh. What a pity..."
Unfortunately, they never dared to cross that line.
"Those behind them are all church nuns!"
Li Moss pinched Haki Saint's lips before she finished having her episode.
He looked at Farol.
"Go on."
"Yes."
Farol slightly raised his hand and pointed to a tree further away.
"Although I can see those trees within my territory, I really can't imagine what they look like until I see them with my own eyes."
"I just thought, how wonderful it would be if we could use such a large piece of timber."
Rumble...
"Quickly, quickly, pile the trees up!"
"Don't dump the grass here, throw it over there in the pasture!"
Just as the group was chatting, the procession of the people finally returned.
It's time to arrange their next tasks.
Li Mosi planned to tell them to go out and try.
